Waterfalls of Coo Photo

Photographer’s Note

On our three day vacation in the Ardennes in Belgium, we visited the waterfalls of Coo. They are Belgiums largest waterfalls and it's a nice tourist attraction.
There I took this picture and here is some info to go along with it:

The waterfalls of Coo, in the river the Amblève, are with an altitude of 15 meters the highest waterfalls of Belgium. The touristservice of the municipality Stavelot indicates 13 meters. The small waterfall already existed in the 15th century. In the 17th century the large waterfall has been made by monks, probably to protect Petit-Coo against floods.

Hello Nel,
Nice capture of the twin waterfall!
I notice the structures on the top, probably an ancient bridge...
Well composed image, effective point of view!

Mooie foto Nel, hieir ben ik heel vroeger ook geweest.
Goede compositie, natuurlijke kleuren.
Leuk contrast, de oever met het groen in het midden.
Ik zie in het midden dat je met een trapje naar beneden kan lopen.
